Do you know why I am the way I am
Do you know why I'm so mean
Sitting here in the dark counting all the days
You said you'd be right back or was that just a dream

Wrapping round and round
Can't you see I'm going to drown
Running out of air
Can't get out of here

Send for my things think I'll try to move
Crawling for the door I'm just in that kind of mood
You should know how I feel you've seen this whole thing through
You've taken everything my kingdom for a Quaalude

We know
This is no way to go
Can't you see

The sun is so hot beating down the door
I burned my hand again I'm crouched down on the floor
Why don't you keep my things they're not worth all this
We keep going round and round this drowning stick
